Basic Authentication

Basic authentication is available only when the optional hard disk is installed.

Specify this authentication method when using the machine's Address Book to authenticate each user. Using Basic authentication, you can not only manage the machine's available functions but also limit access to Stored Print files and the Address Book. Under Basic authentication, the administrator must specify the functions available to each user registered to the Address Book. For details about limitation of functions, see Authentication Information Stored in the Address Book.
